senator, let's get right into it. you just heard the chairs of the intelligence committees on benghazi. bottom line point, did director petraeus call this terrorism from the get go? they say yes. they don't understand why the administration didn't call it the same two days later. how do you react? >> well, i think one of the reasons that susan rice told the story she did, if the truth came out a few weeks before the election, that our consulate in benghazi, libya, had been overrun by an al qaeda-sponsored militia, that destroys the thinking that al qaeda is dead, bin laden is dead. she said i want to remind the american people this president promised to go after bin laden, refocus on al qaeda. he got bin laden. al qaeda has been dismantled. and the truth of the matter nothing could have been further from the truth, and the story she told reinforced a political narrative helpful to the president. but disconnected from reality. >> let's be clear about what you're saying. you also heard senator feinstien say unequivocall

president obama, and you're right, rahm emanuel ran as far away from that record as he could. interestingly, when he started talking about the middle class, what did he not talk about? the fact that the middle class has suffered more in the last four years of president obama's administration than in the previous 12. that they don't want to talk about. >> tom? >> well, i think it's unfair to say that romney wasn't specific. he was very specific. he said he's going to balance the budget. cut taxes. raise -- protect medicare and preserve all 9 the institutions of the federal government that we need from the fbi to the faa. you can't possibly do all of those things. that was my problem. how does the math add up? so to me, he's still at war with math. and i think that's where "the wall street journal" editorial is quite a positive. how are you going to do these things? i believe this time is different. i think the american people really do want a plan. they want one from romney. they want one from obama. and i think they will reward someone who they feel has laid down a credible pl

obama kicks off his campaign and romney sharpens his message. we're right on it in terms of what people are talking about. senator, let me start with you, between the president's big speech in ohio and virginia what you heard from the vice president this morning, how would you describe from the romney campaign this pitch for re-election you're hearing? >> i think overall with all due respect to the vice president, it's very, very sad that the candidate who ran on hope and change and uniting us in 2008 seems unrecognizable now. we've had a decisive president. we've had a president who is failing to lead on the fundamental issues starting first with the economy. we saw that jobs report on friday was very, very disappointing. the most disappointing aspect of it is that people are leaving the job market, and obviously, they feel hopeless in terms of where the economy is right now. its two signature issues, you think about it health care and the stimulus, when they had a supermajority in both congresses, the democrats didn't work and they were failur

i do think that the governor is right, and we'll expect to hear governor romney go after president obama this time about i want more details about your plan. you keep harping on me. i haven't heard the details in your plan as well. i looked at that debate we talked about a moment ago, it was playing last night on cspan, and governor, now president obama was saying, look, we've got a deficit of half a trillion dollars. i'm going to get that under control. this week, that deficit is $1.1 trillion and it happened on his watch. he has to answer for that. >> david, we have now had two debates with the vice president and president where mitt romney and his running mate have said that they will not put new revenue on the table. one thing that did come out in the debate between romney and obama was that mitt romney stood by his raising of the hand where he said he wouldn't take 10 cuts for one new measure of revenue. paul ryan said the exact same thing. >> well, that is a fact. they are not willing to raise revenue as far as we know except for broadening the base, dealing with some elimination o

now and our oversampling of latino voters with telemundo, obama has a 61% to 27% advantage. is there anything that changes that advantage? for instance if marco rubio were to be on the ticket, do you think there's any potential for changing that dynamic? >> some potential, not much. vice presidential candidates don't usually give you a big bump, maybe in that state. david said something with respect to president obama's support among ethnics and other democratic groups and it has everything to do with the fact that the republican party has gone so far to the right. we saw that in the election on women taking this to the 1950s and talking about contraception and on the issue of immigration, talking about the south deportation of 11 million people. i don't know a country in the world that has ever south deported 11 million people. when he said the dream act was a handout. that's out of the mainstream of what most people think. when he failed to stand up and say anything when cain talked about electrifying the border fence. so i think that's a big reason why. it's the policies

it really is down to obama and boehner at the table. i think you can only take a snapshot right now and try to look at what the experience the president has had recently. he won re-election. he's had lots of ceos in to meet with him. and this is interesting. they are telling him, mostly republicans, let's give on rates. it's not a big deal. i think the house leadership may have lost the parade that is supposed to be following them on that. i think lots of republicans feel that that can be done. and then the ceos are worried to death about another debt ceiling fight like in 2011. >> julianna, you asked the question with the president, when do you and boehner get into a room and? and he basically said, well, that's not important as him giving on tax rates and then we get together. >> when is either side going to blink. the president says they need to acknowledge that rates need to go up, and the republicans are saying the president needs to lay out what specific entitlements and spending cuts he would agree to. and what the president sign
